00:00You're not mad?

00:02No, I mean, I can't tell you, it was one of the best times I ever had.

00:06Welcome to Ms. Mojo.

00:08And today we're counting down our picks for the most iconic big-screen bad-girl, bad-boy couples

00:13who may or may not be varying levels of cool and functional.

00:18Occasionally, maybe, when you aren't acting like a scoundrel.

00:22Scoundrel?

00:25Number 10, Harley Quinn and the Joker, Suicide Squad.

00:29And that was just the beginning.

00:35He's a crime kingpin with a permanent smile.

00:38She's the psychiatrist who tried to cure him.

00:40Instead, she joined him in his criminal crusade.

00:43Together, they are a perfect tag team of deranged behavior.

00:47These two are as devoted to each other as they are to wreaking havoc on Gotham City.

00:52Stories about Jared Leto's method acting and Margot Robbie's later spin-off

00:56might have overshadowed this ill-fated movie couple's time together.

01:05If you weren't so crazy, I'd think you were insane.

01:08Still, the sheer amount of Joker and Harley Quinn couple costumes we saw at Halloween parties

01:13after the movie was released cannot be overstated.

01:17Number 9, Chucky and Tiffany, The Child's Play franchise.

01:32The family that slays together, stays together.

01:35A freckle-faced good guy with a sense of humor and an insatiable bloodlust,

01:40Chucky is a doll possessed by serial killers.

01:43In the Bride of Chucky sequel, we finally get to meet the woman who loved him.

01:47Tiffany Valentine is every bit as wicked and deadly as Chucky.

01:51But whether she's in human or doll form, she's got twice the style.

02:00In a lot of ways, they just want what most couples want.

02:03A happy home, a family and quality time.

02:06And they will steal, use blood, and kill.

02:11And they will steal, use black magic and commit mass violence to get it.

02:30Danny and Sandy eat up all the attention, but these two have some great moments.

02:34When they aren't busy keeping up appearances as the coolest kids in school,

02:38Betty Rizzo and Kenickie have a soft spot for each other.

02:41They only play tough for their friends.

02:43In reality, there's a real tenderness between them.

02:51Even though Kenickie is the kind of person who considers Hickey's a romantic gesture,

02:55he really seems to care about Rizzo.

02:58In one of her lowest moments, he tries to be there for her.

03:01It's Rizzo who has to realize that she can let her guard down around him.

03:08Prince Charming will show up again someday.

03:24Taking aim at the true crime genre and tabloid sensationalism,

03:27this Oliver Stone movie has something to say about how violence is glamorized in the media.

03:32That takes a backseat to Mickey and Mallory Knox's sadistic and twisted romance.

03:37The two may be homicidal maniacs, but they're also deeply in love.

03:54While it first appears to be a case of a man corrupting a young, impressionable woman,

03:58Mallory Knox isn't a good girl gone bad.

04:01She is every bit as game to commit acts of cruelty as her unofficial husband.

04:06Natural Born Killer sees the two inspire a cult of fans

04:09who watch their murder spree unfold like it's a soap opera they can't turn off.

04:32Veronica's an articulate and moody teen just looking to be understood.

04:35But she's not exactly innocent when she meets the new kid J.D. Dean.

04:40His pretentious, fake, deep musings about the futility of life

04:43do not strike her as the red flags they should.

04:46There's a level of adolescent cruelty to Veronica that her new sociopath boyfriend exploits.

04:51But where she's capable of change, J.D. clearly is not.

04:56While Veronica Sawyer's desire to get back at her popular friends

04:59may have opened the door for his reign of terror,

05:06J.D. is by far the more villainous one in this bad couple.

05:26The insomniac narrator meets Marla Singer, a troubled woman who shares one of his hobbies.

05:31Unfortunately, that hobby is joining support groups for problems they do not have.

05:36Their shared fakery and disaffection manifests in ways that are best understood if you watch the movie.

05:42Few would call Fight Club a love story,

05:44but their relationship does form the emotional core of the movie.

05:49All this, why do you keep...

05:51Is this making you happy?

05:55Yeah, well, sometimes.

05:57The narrator and Marla Singer don't end the cult classic with a kiss and passionate embrace.

06:02Instead, they hold hands as the city explodes around them.

06:06Some couples just want to watch the world burn.

06:12You met me at a very strange time in my life.

06:19I know.

06:25What?

06:26Nothing. You stick out like a sore thumb around here.

06:29Me? What about you?

06:31I fit in better than you. At least I'm wearing cowboy boots.

06:34The street-smart, leather jacket-wearing engaged couple from Brooklyn

06:37stick out like sore thumbs in rural Alabama.

06:40They really could not care less, though.

06:43They're too busy cutting each other down to size to notice all the locals staring at them.

06:47Mona Lisa wants Vinny to find success as a lawyer,

06:50even if she has to bust his chops to get him there.

06:53Were both cars available in metallic mint green paint?

06:58They were.

06:59Thank you, Ms. Vito.

07:01What's great about Vinny and Lisa is that,

07:03despite their rough-and-tough exteriors and vulgarity with each other,

07:06you can always tell how much they love each other.

07:09They are in each other's corners like no one else.

07:12My problem is I wanted to win my first case without any help from anybody.

07:17Well, I guess that plans moved.

07:19Yeah.

07:31These two demonstrate their bad tendencies in very different ways.

07:36Heath Ledger's cigarette-smoking bad boy is practically a living legend

07:39who could have any girl he wants.

07:41When he accepts money to take out the stubborn and antisocial Cat Stratford,

07:45Patrick Verona finally meets his match.

07:58Cat is unwilling to compromise on her own principles,

08:01even if it means no one likes her.

08:03She'd rather be herself than bend to other people's will.

08:06It's what makes her unique.

08:08It's also what makes her hard to get to know.

08:10Watching them thaw each other's learned defenses

08:13is what makes this one a classic rom-com.

08:16Start a band?

08:17No, install car stereos.

08:19Yeah, start a band.

08:20My father would love that.

08:22Number 2.

08:23Princess Leia and Han Solo.

08:25The Star Wars franchise.

08:37Harrison Ford's lovable rogue started out as a guy who was just in it for the money.

08:41He ended up becoming a rebel hero.

08:44Princess Leia may have functioned as the damsel in distress,

08:47but from the start she was anything but.

08:50The tension was clear right away.

08:52Like any hard-headed people who are forced to work together,

08:55they butted heads immediately.

08:57We're still wondering why being a nerf herder is such an insult.

09:13Of course, as time went on,

09:15fans watched the two realize how complimentary

09:17their specific brands of sarcasm and resourcefulness were.

09:21They were still badasses.

09:23They were just badasses together.

09:46Bonnie and Clyde.

09:47Bonnie and Clyde.

09:59They were the original bad boy meets bad girl story.

10:02Based on the real-life bank robbers Clyde Barrow and Bonnie Parker,

10:06these two had no qualms about how they made their dishonest living.

10:09The Warren Beatty and Faye Dunaway-led classic inspired legions of fans.

10:13Their effortless cool was thrilling to watch,

10:16and their revelry at being bad was contagious,

10:19despite their grisly end.

10:21You didn't just perfect.

10:27I did, didn't I?

10:28Their exploits were seen as romantic and thrilling

10:31by audiences who had never seen a more attractive pair of criminals.

10:35Bonnie and Clyde's anti-establishment values

10:37resonated with the countercultural movement of the 1960s.

10:41We rob banks.
